Hi guys, a little help please, I dont understand how/if I can change my calorie goal to what I want?

Example is mfp has me at 1560 to lose 1lb a week, this is under my bmr so I'd like to change it to nearer 1700 but if I change my setting to lose 0.5lbs or up my activity it jumps up to 1850 odd (can't recall the exact number) which is more than I want...help?

    You can manually edit your calorie goal on the website version of the program. I dont remember which buttons to push but browse around the goals section, and you should find it.

    Most people suggest finding your TDEE and subtracting 500 off of that for a good goal. I just go with what MFP tells me, but TDEE is probably more accurate.
